''Samy Vellu To Probe Irregularities In School Repairs''
Works Minister Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu will be in Penang Friday to investigate claims of irregularities involving financial allocations to two Chinese national type schools.
He said Chinese newspapers yesterday reported on the repairs to the Mah Hwa school in Kepala Batas and the Chung Hwa school in Butterworth.
"Repairs done on the schools were not proportionate to the value of the allocations approved. I informed the Cabinet of this yesterday," he told reporters after chairing a meeting of the MIC Central Working Committee, here.
He also said that the special Public Works Department (PWD) team formed to investigate the repairs to the Kung Yu school in Muar, Johor, would be recording statements from all officers involved in approving the repair job.
The team, led by PWD Director-General Datuk Wahid Omar, was also directed to investigate the contractor awarded the job.
Samy Vellu said those involved, such as technicians, the contractor and the district engineer, would give their statements.
The special team was formed last week on the instruction of the Cabinet, and was announced by Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak after he had received a report on the matter.
The report said some RM29,000 was approved for the repairs while the actual job done was valued at only RM3,000.
Replying to a question, Samy Vellu said he would not prevent Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) from lodging a report on the matter with the Anti-Corruption Agency.
"I am all for it. We too can make reports on what the PKR leaders did when they were in government," he added.
